While entering a parking spot to a diner, the car unintended accelerated crashing into the side of the diner. Minor damage to the side of the diner as I was no more than 3 feet from the bldg. My foot was on the brake pedal when this acceleration occurred without warning. I was entering the parking spot at no more than 5 MPH planning to put the car in park and exit for lunch. My leg hit the hood latch and I obtained a nasty cut on my shin.
